Carl Bond Obituary
He is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Diana, their children Joel (Kristy) and Rachel (Ben), and his 3 cherished grandchildren; Reina, Bobby, and Zoe. Also his children Lisa (Cohen), Marla, and Barry Bond
"Everybody loves Curl", is something Carl would always boast...but it was the truth. If you met Carl, you would remember it. He had the ability to relate with any and everyone on some level. You would be drawn in by his wit, charm, sincerity, generosity, and borderline inappropriate jokes. His personality and character really were larger than life and he was truly one of a kind.
His greatest achievement in business was that he was able to help care for so many people. He was very proud of the family business he established, and was able to add a smile to everyone's workday.
Our family would like to say a heartfelt thank you his family physician, Dr. Barry Hardin, Dr. Deb Isaac, Dr. Derek Exner, and their teams at the Cardiac Function Clinic (Maria Carducci) and the Cardiac Device Clinic. We would also like to thank the Community Paramedic Team who assisted Carls comfort in his final days.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made directly to support the Heart Function Clinic at the Cumming School of Medicine, University. Cheques should be made payable to "University of Calgary" with "in memory of Carl Bond" in the memo line & mailed to: Fund Development office, Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, 3330 Hospital Drive NW, Calgary, Alberta, T2N-4N1

We were saddened to learn of Carl's passing almost a year ago. He was a most colourful character and a good friend. He always put his family first and we hope the memories of the great moments you shared are a comfort to you now.
I thank you for your commitment and support to the founding of Akiva Academy

On behalf of the Binstock family I would like to share in the loss of such a great and wonderful person who made me laugh, cry and tell great stories. Our trip to Israel in 1997 was most memorable. May his name be of a blessed memory and will always be in our hearts. Love, Howard, Suzanne and family.

Mr. Bond was a highly respected man. My dad would speak often of him and the many laughs and good times they
had.

Diana and family, please accept my sincerest sympathies at this time of your deep sorrow. Carl was described so well in his obituary for that was truly the man I knew since meeting him 32 years ago when I started working for Dr. Hardin. He always came to the office with a joke of some kind that either made you shake your head or laugh really hard. I was happy that I had the chance to say goodbye to him the week before he passed and I can only imagine how hard it was for you when he made his decision that he had just had enough. I will always remember Carl and I wish you all a peaceful healing period.

Some of my favourite memories of Carl occurred on the golf course. I would sometimes be laughing so hard at Carl's antics that my stomach would hurt! Having said this, the "man of many clubs" had a great golf game. Carl was a true friend to Michael and I and we will miss him very much.
